PB,
haha.. no i didn't buy a shophouse. i moved to the heartlands... oh i miss the East Coast area much... i hope we'll be able to afford a place back there in 2 yrs time. i hate my current place!
You taught poppy to count in hokkien?! well done! hahah.. i taught my boy kar chng, bra etc... my hb frowned and shook his head... my justification: better i teach him myself than he learn in school, come home and i scold him for saying inappropriate stuff hahaha...
hi hi Cellow,
must applaud you for your commitment to bf-ing C2
SY,
yaya.. we are very diligent farmers hehehehe...but i can only use the pc either in the office or at night after son sleeps. but nowadays so tired at night, i fall alseep before my son does
DoubleDee,
hi. don't think we've "met" since i haven't log in for months... hope to get to know you and your kid(s)...
E-square, Congrats!!! so happy for you
Qing,
i was wondering which playroom did you bring Barbie. looks like a lot of fun. maybe after my son recovers fully, i'll bring him there.
but the birthday package more for kids. think i'll pass on this coz our guests will be more adults than kids. thanks for sharing.
SDChick,
my hb is all FOR another kid. i want but 38 seems old to be getting pregnant. and i'm already so tired all the time... plus my work and financial commitment. is it really wise to be looking after 2 kids under 18 when i hit 50 yrs old?

U power aah can even pump there.....hahaha
Realised that being a mum makes us even more resourceful and we can make use of ANYTHING we can find.....hahahaa
Not like the dads.......sigh
Just start car engine only he cannot carry the daughter along....ah dui
Steph
U already have 1 under 18. Maybe having another will give him someone to confide in when he doesn't want his parents to know stuff.
Better then having no one to confide n then getting fustrated and rebellious. AT least that's what I think lah...hehe
I'm actually not very close to my siblings but my cousins are very close to each other and I really envy that. So I'm doing what I can to help the kids be close to each other so that they can rely on one another n still have each other in future if anything happens to us.

Hi everyone ;-)
Anyone ever been to sunway lagoon? I need feedback on this. And desaru. I think pb ever asked before? Is it better to go by land or sea?
Rena, congrats.
Step, if your health is ok, and both u and hubby is willing, I think you're not too old to have another child lah. But I do agree on your concern. When you're 50, the child is still so young. I used to think of this quite often too.

Hehe yes poppy counts in hokkien with a bit of prompting. She knows bra too! So funny
Girls
Today I had lunch with a colleague who said some colleagues found out about my husband staying home with poppy and working from home and "had things to say". And they were men.
I guess I'm angry at them for being so narrow minded. But I feel sorry for bluebunny that he is looked down upon for doing such a noble thing
Such is life

wow, congrats!
Cellow:
bravo! i don't think i can pump under that circumstance... recently part of my office had power failure, including the nursing room, then i could not pump with my medela PIS. rather wait for power to come back than pumping in my cubicle

wah dor.. your comment about giving them a sibling making me guilty again.. sigh
qing.. can have big bash on a sun so I can make my mr shy come along? (he works sat mornings lah...)
PB: think your male colleagues are just being typical local chauvanistic men! hmmph... I think it takes a brave man to do so (one without inferior complexity!) give him a pat on the back for us...
something's been biting my poor baby.. i initially thought it was mozzie bites on his legs.. til he got more.. 7 on legs and 3 on arms now! like nasty bites that he will scratch til it sometimes tear..
have not seen any mosquitoes at all so may be bed bugs?? stripped his bed naked and everything's soaking in boiling water now as he snoozes wiv me on the big bed...

esquare,
CONGRATS!!!!!! bb girl dust for you.
hehe, a bit weird for me to sprinkle bb girl dust since i only have boys hor.
abt the pumping at A Bocelli concert. girls, it was dark so no one can see what i was doing.... except for the pple sitting just next to me. Mr C as usual is highly supportive... and glared (in the dark so not v effective but hey tis the thot that counts rite) at any1 who even glanced my way, haha. so not really flashing my milk producing boobs in public la.
waiwai,
i wouldnt pump in my cubicle too. so weird.
dd,
come come on Sunday! then go eat the famous katong laksa or beach road prawn noodles
for 2nd bday bash. personally i prefer Sat mornings to Sun mornings as gotta go to church on Sundays.... put to a vote?
pb,
those men who made the comments need to read the ST interview ystday. some finnish or swedish professor was saying that in singapore, the women are 'protesting' with our wombs bcz we have to choose between family and career, and the MEN are not pulling their wgt. [the idea is liddat, but the article had a more eloquent turn of phrase]
when i think abt it, luckily i got good support fm both my coy and Mr C, otherwise no kids for me too! (and then would have missed knowing all of you)
steph,
hmmm. 38 is not too old, i feel. now pple are living longer and healthier lives, so 50 is the new 40 ah.
and i was idly thinking today... it might be nice to have a daughter
better stop this train of thot right in its tracks
based on past 2 experiences, i just need to think only, then *pop* a baby comes out.

Haha cellow
Babies need to be produced. And not just by thought LOL!
How are JSP and lil anya doing?
Welcome back waiwai, long time no hear!
Tks for ur support qing and DD. I never tell BB what the jokers in office said but I'm sure he's heard some comments fr others too but either he's just not told me, or he simply doesn't bother. He's like that. That's one thing I love abt him. But also, it works to my disadvantage. Like. Every year I would "say" him like "your mother's birthday leh, aren't you going to do something?" And every year I play the waiting game until it's too late then I rush to buy present and send to her
Many sg men are so narrow minded la. When I think about how many (few) of them can bring baby out on their own (play gym, swimming, park...), pack diaper bag, change diaper, I feel so proud of BB. Guess we can do some sniggering on our own huh.
And guess who's kids will have fond memories of dad spending so much time with them in childhood

morning all..
PB: my dad stayed home with us.. from e time i was in Pri sch i think.. he worked from home too.. practical decision as my mum had higher earning power.. imagine wat he had to go thru.. when SAHD weren't heard of back then.. but well, i am one of those kids with fond memories of dad spending much time with me in childhood.. and many of my frens were envious as he wld come along for excursions, cook for us yummy food when they came over.. so yes, wat BB is doing is noble and poppy will appreciate it.. so dun have to bother wat others say

PB: no prob.. till today, i have friends who tell me they are envious of e r/ship my dad had with us.. keke.. n imagine when i had high fever, i will always remember that it was him that stayed up e entire night sponging me lor.. tt's one memory i cannot erase.. everytime i am v tired from caring for e kids when they sick i will rem how he did it for me..
steph
hee u r really progressing very fast in your farm!! i also do it at night mainly after the kids sleep but nowadays really spending less time on it... my hb spends more time on it than me!
PB
i think BB is really great. it is great that he can ignore what other pple say and believe in the value of what he is doing. if my hb were to really stay at home, i think the kids wd end up with the maid half the time!!
my dad also spent a lot of time with us when we were young. i heard from my mum that when we were very young (me and my twin) my dad was the one who took care of us once he reached home. when i was in hospital, both times my dad stayed over with me though he had to work. all these memories really help to foster the r/s.
mummies
jx has been super clingy! n she calls me ah me. so funny. she has been doing a lot of funny things lately. she's quite sadist i realise. yesterday she tooked out the plaster from the doc set, looked at my hand n went ouch very loudly then put a plaster for me. n during dinner time she suddenly smacked my head, went ouch n put her hand at my eyes n made crying sounds, pretending that i m crying....
n she's weird. if i ask her to show the father what she can say, she will zip her mouth n refuse to say a word....

38 is not old lah... When I'm having Emma I'm also not young anymore. True that our body is getting older hehehe. I can't carry Emma for a long time else my back will hurt for days. I have always wanted my #1 to have a sibling, so I was ok with #2. No more #3 for me, although mr SD wants more.
PB
BB is very good! Don't forget to compliment him about his decision from time to time. As for your male colleagues remarks: IGNORE them. They're just jealous cuz they do not have the guts.

When my hb stayed home to look after #1 fulltime, he got a lot of negative comments from his own family. Think BB is handling everything very well. Three cheers!
Crystal
Your dad rocks!
Qing
Am OK on either day for bday bash.
SY
My darling is also super duper clingy. Hard to cook, even to go to the bathroom.
E Sq
Sending you girl dust too
Steph
If you feel you can do it, and hb supports, go ahead. Sometimes I still think about trying for a girl.

PB,
you know wat i mean la. *grin*
abt SAHDs. i kaypoh enuf to go dig out Wed's ST article on page A12. the professor was talking abt domestic foreign workers, how married women still have to bear the brunt of the hsehold affairs, and quote "worse, men are denied the transformative experience of bringing up their children" unquote.
the term thought leader has been bandied abt like no one's biz, but this professor seems to be the real deal... well, he made me think!
once the C children get to primary school, i think i will let go of a maid.... (need to discuss w Mr C) a maid causes more trouble and now come to think of it, bringing up a child is the parents' respty.
youpi,
not surprising... the idea of a SAHD or even a SAHM in my family will elicit a LOT of comments. my folks firmly believe in doing smthing else for self besides planting, fertilising and smtimes pruning children.
funny how i never thot to question tis belief till now.
trying for a girl - are u stopping at thinking abt it only? heh
crystal,
wow. mine was my mum wiping down my forehead in the night when i had fever.
qing,
u sound stressed leh gal.
if Mr Q needs a talking to, get your MIL and god MIL to brainwash him.
bcz hor.. i find that anything coming fm the wife wrt job search is likely to push some buttons, so i dun ask until he tells

hi DD,
got your msg. pai seh hor hehe. really no mood to "chat" with anyone during past few months coz didn't have nice topics to talk abt so didn't come in here.
make sure the matteress, bedsheets pillow case etc are sunned and totally dry before using them again. poor boy. must be scratching all over. my son too. every time he takes the cough n runny nose medicine, he will start to perspire and become totally drenched and start scratching till the rashes get inflammed.
Mommies, thank you all for your encouragement abt trying for another bb. will think abt it more like cellow hehehe.... praying hard for healthy bb. boy / girl also nvm
some company for bunny bb anyone??
PB,
ignore those negative remarks. sometimes hor the things that men say can be more bitchy than women and they can get so narrow minded and literally like toads in a long kang- dirty and smelly and slimmy. even the hokkien pie uncles in my office. aiyoh really lor worse than the aunties. like what have been said by mommies here, your hb deserves a big pat on his back for making such contributions to the family.
my hb has couple of friends who work from home too. see, your male colleagues are just sitting in their wells
Qing,
oic... I would really like to attend but can't coz we will be having bday for son cum house warming party on same day.
SY,
I ve been farming since pregnant with my son in 2008. I took very long to reach that level. you're the fast one hehe...
your girl so cute. she may aspire to be a doctor next time

abt your hb, which industry is he in? despite what our govt say in the news abt economy doing well, doesn't apply for all industries hor. maybe can encourage him to upgrade his skills in the meantime. if he's been out drinking may signal that he's upset abt losing his job and stress abt being jobless too. maybe you try help him update his resume or practise going through an interview. when we stop going for interviews after we settled in a company, we need a lot of courage and confidence to go interview for a new job. just my 2 cents worth. good luck.

Me too back in action!! Saw Holly n family on the flight back! so qiao hee hee
HK disneyland was quite good. Small but enough to keep the kid occupied. But we did not have any pic taking sessions with any of the life size character + li xun because *drum rolllllll* she scared scared!! whats new ah. During the breakfast with the characters, she was so stressed up. Constantly looking around to 'watch out' for the characters. If they are anywhere nearby, she will be screaming le ... *faintz*
But lucky my mum was with us. Me really physically cmi le... nvm will be better after SEP!
Qing, thanks for the update on ON and TCP. Realise something ... xun gal's 2T tops are getting too short for her too ... should have bought 3Ts ones. And u know hor, some of the ON 3T bottoms are just nice .... .... big butt girl.
Rena, congrats!!!! girl dust to u!!
PB, very proud of BB! DUn think my hubby will be up to it .. even myself, i suspect i will not be a good sahm too... ashame of myself.
Steph, welcome back!
Cellow, thinking of visiting u next weekend? Anyone else wanna go??
Qn to experienced mummies: how can i make xun gal less sticky to me? In HK, me and hubby sneaked out for 1 hr one of the nights. She cried so badly for me (and a bit for hubby) that she vomitted out all her dinner + milk!! Then she keep wanting to keep me in her sight. Imagine if my mum is not her main care giver, i think i will dieee. Even my mum buay tahan her stickiness.

Where is kayden going? Which school?
Welcome back HK mummies!
Lol on jace's explanation of xun gal's fear of the disney characters and "what's new" hehe. Disneyland sounds like fun. Esp since now poppy's best friend is minnie mouse. Ex or not, to go to HK?
Oh jace, don't say liddat. I think everyone is a good mother! We just all show our love in diff ways
But actually I wonder if my being back at work has changed me. We were at chalet yest and when I played with poppy, I found myself to be rather "fake". Can't explain. Like not like SAHM days when everything came naturally?

i am back!
disneyland and ocean park is fabulous for the kids! they lurve lurve lurve the panda bears, all the disney characters, all the rides, all the toys, all the shows (esp the 3D fantasia show), the parade, the fireworks...
during the brekkie with the disney characters, mine even want to follow them around and were so pleased to have the shots taken and to hold their hands and hug them.
now the little boy goes around saying "i lurve mickey mouse, i lurve panda bear!"
shopping was not very good though. we went to citygate for outlet shopping and only got a few pieces of clothing for the children.
and mr D and me were totally tired out. we came back sat night, on sunday after church, we went back home and napped a loooong time in the pm!
so the pics are still all stuck in the cam. hehe!

My mum also machiam treat her like a 3YO kid too.
We went to stanley too... enjoyed the place coz its relaxing. But hor the way there and out was terrible! xun gal got car sick and vomitted in the cab on the way back!! me and my mum + herself was soaked in puke *yucks* super pai seh to the cab driver. I used the hand sanitiser to spray the car to get rid of the smell. After that i think she got phobia of getting into cabs le...
Holly its ok! And hor u look great too! Totally not preggie at all hee hee ... i am getting bigger and becoming more immobile liao.
Rena, hang on! I tot i almost died then ... even now, when i eat the wrong stuff i will puke ... so lousy one.

PB, its definitely not fake but maybe not as used to it as being a sahm? coz sahm thats your 24/7 job so of coz the reaction etc will all be so in u right? HK is ex for the hotel and disneyland quite ex too esp the hotel. but i think it is quite worth it. Unless u wanna go japan disneyland. The one in japan definitely bigger but the q is also super duper long. HK one is shorter (but i think maybe we went on a weekday?)
Maybe we will go again next year wahahahahaha
Maybe we will go again next year wahahahahaha
we didn't go stanley this time. but we braved the ladies street and mongkok! OMG! so crowded! after that experience when we ask talia about HK, she will say "HK got a lot of bad pple, must hold hands!" and when we ask the boy what does HK have? he will say "a lot of bus, a lot of people!"
and i was a bit more relaxed regarding food, he still ate a few bottles of baby food but when we could get porridge or rice with egg, he gets to eat them so i think he associate HK with yummy food too! hehe!
as for the girl, i also let her eat the ice creams on the plane and desserts at xu lui san, so she has yummy food memories as well.

jace,
i was wearing super big clothes ma. haha.. i purposely bought a few pcs of loose clothes to prepare for the growing tummy..
ur tummy is not exactly too big ma.. u still look great lo.. just din dare to disturb u when i saw u on flight coz u were resting. hehe..
PB,
HK can b cheap, can b ex. depending on how u go about in the city.
u can find hotels cheap n good but dun expect luxury like u find in Disneyland Hotel. but, Disneyland hotel will b worth a night's stay coz is a different experience.
HK also has alot of public transport which is very convenient. BUT! this i must comment, publics are all very baby unfriendly. Mr H had to carry pram + bosco at every MTR exits. (Mr H actually comment that tt's the reason why HK n China have so many Olympics Champion coz their citizens have to exercise EVERYDAY. =P)
eating in HK is actually quite cheap. A meal with main course n drink cost only abt S$5. but of coz, if u are planning to eat better quality food, it can cost a bomb la.
Overall HK is not really tt costly if u r to compare to other places. tt's why we last min choose to go for a HK trip instead. hehehe..
doggie,
i just let bosco eat watever we ate. remember the first time i brought bosco back to HK, we even brought slow cooker to cook his porridge. now, he eat watever we eats.
yummy food... ya.. LOL! we realise tt too eh. bosco had been spitting out food he din like. but when we are in hk, he ate everything, even things he spit out in sg, he dun spit it out in hk. he even snatch smelly toufu with me!! =P

HK craving
Sounds like the holiday-ers had a great time! DD, yes, you should force your agent to let you go to HK instead.
A lot of people say that the place is not child-friendly but I actually had no trouble. We brought #1 there when he was 8 months, and we went with both when #2 was 10 months. Didn't bring a stroller, just used the sling and the Ergo. HKIA and the bigger shopping malls have great nursing rooms. But no one batted an eyelid when I nursed in public. People always offered seats on the MTR. And everyone was very, very helpful. I don't know if it was because I was alone with w baby and a toddler, but seriously, it was fine. Maybe we were lucky, who knows? But I do want to go again before the pollution levels get worse! And of course, before #2 turns three, hehe!
